      abstract     = {Numbers of neurons and their spatial variation are
                      fundamental organizational features of the brain. Despite
                      the large corpus of cytoarchitectonic data available in the
                      literature, the statistical distributions of neuron
                      densities within and across brain areas remain largely
                      uncharacterized. Here, we show that neuron densities are
                      compatible with a lognormal distribution across cortical
                      areas in several mammalian species, and find that this also
                      holds true within cortical areas. A minimal model of noisy
                      cell division, in combination with distributed proliferation
                      times, can account for the coexistence of lognormal
                      distributions within and across cortical areas. Our findings
                      uncover a new organizational principle of cortical
                      cytoarchitecture: the ubiquitous lognormal distribution of
                      neuron densities, which adds to a long list of lognormal
                      variables in the brain.},
